            GenderIT.org @ Athens: Gender Peripheries of Internet Governance
Forum

            The first meeting of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF), stated
by the UN and many ICT policy advocates as “one of the most significant
outcomes of the World Summit on Information Society”, will be held in Athens
from October 30 to November 2. Follow the GenderIT.org team as we update you
on activities of gender advocates and women's concerns on the agenda's key
issues: openness (freedom of expression, free flow of information, ideas and
knowledge); diversity (multilingualism, local content); access (internet
connectivity: policy and cost) and security (surveillance, privacy,
'cybercrime' ); and capacity building.
